Please help: How to stop SSH server on N9?

Code:

/sbin/initctl start ssh

works fine, but

Code:

/sbin/initctl stop ssh

gives:

Code:

initctl: Job has no running instances: ssh

Tried that too:

Code:

# /sbin/initctl stop sshd
initctl: Unknown job: sshd

that impossible. You may have some typo in command. Try just

Code:

stop ssh

And do not try to call that command twice in a row.

As it will produce these messages:

Code:

~ # /sbin/initctl stop ssh
ssh stop/waiting
~ # /sbin/initctl stop ssh
initctl: Job has no running instances: ssh
~ # /sbin/initctl start ssh
ssh start/running, process 20499
~ # /sbin/initctl start ssh
initctl: Job is already running: ssh

Code:

~ # /sbin/initctl start ssh
ssh start/running, process 6370
~ # stop ssh
sh: stop: not found
~ # /sbin/initctl stop ssh
initctl: Job has no running instances: ssh
~ # killall sshd
~ # killall sshd
killall: sshd: no process killed

But I managed to kill ssh server by

Code:

killall sshd

Yes, 'killall sshd' will stop the currently running instance.
But it will be respawned thrice aitomatically:

~ # cat /etc/init/ssh.conf
description "SSH"

# started by group-mce.conf
stop on stopped dbus

console output
respawn
respawn limit 3 300
normal exit 0
...

So something else wrong on your device.
Please check
/sbin/initctl status ssh
and
ps | grep ssh
after launching with
/sbin/initctl start ssh

Maybe this reveals abit more, else check logs (e.g. /var/logs/syslog) and/or check configs in /etc/ssh/

BTW
What about ssh status check with
ssh root@localhost
?

It's not respawning in my case after "killall sshd".

Code:

~ # ps | grep ssh
16967 root grep ssh
~ # /sbin/initctl status ssh
ssh stop/waiting
~ # /sbin/initctl start ssh
ssh start/running, process 16970
~ # ps | grep ssh
16972 root /usr/sbin/sshd
16974 root grep ssh
~ # /sbin/initctl status ssh
ssh stop/waiting

ssh root@localhost asked me to add localhost to known host, i aswered "yes" and then asked me for root password
I'am doing all of that with DeveloperMode disabled.

I guess your only problem is that probably the ssh upstart script is broken so that init/upstart actually "forgets" it has started sshd. Can you post the init script?

Does Jolla use upstart at all?
